Married at First Sight Chapter 2589
Regardless of how they dissuaded him, Julian was firm that he had no ability to stop his parents, leaving the Crawfords quite helpless.They thought that if Julian’s parents did come, they would treat them cordially.Ring, ring, ring.Zoey’s phone rang.She answered the call without checking who it was from.“Oh, it’s Felicia.”Hearing Zoey greeting the caller, Quinn and her brother immediately pricked their ears to listen to their mother’s conversation with Felicia.“You want to introduce a boyfriend to Quinn? What does he do for a living? You know about Quinn’s situation right? You won’t introduce someone afraid Quinn might be abusive like those previous ones, will you?“Felicia, let me clarify right away. If the prospective partner is worried that Quinn might be abusive, there’s no need for you to play the matchmaker. Quinn won’t marry anyone with such concerns. I’d rather raise her for life than let her marry someone with tendencies for domestic violence.”Felicia chuckled

Quinn calmly ate her food. When Zoey was not looking, she seized the window of opportunity and refilled her glass with wine before downing it. By the time her mother looked over, she had already put down the glass and was back to calmly eating her meal. There was no sign of her sneaky behavior.Julian found this amusing.However, he did not dare to fill Quinn’s glass with wine. His future mother-in-law had strict rules about not allowing the family to drink too much, and even though he was just having a couple of drinks together as their guest, he could not overindulge. He certainly did not want to break the good impression Zoey had of him.“Yes, it’s her colleague’s son. She wants our daughter to meet him tomorrow at the nicely decorated bubble tea shop near our gym.”Zoey handed the phone to Dave and asked quietly, “What do you think? Should we arrange for our daughter to meet him? He seems a bit overweight, and it’s clear that he seldom works out.Dave took the phone, and Will

Quinn had always treated Julian like a buddy and the Crawfords had eliminated him from the list of potential son-in-law candidates. Zoey took her phone back and said, “Let’s wait for any updates tomorrow. You can go over if Felicia doesn’t cancel the date. The boba shop isn’t too far from our gym anyway.“Bring a dress and a pair of heels with you when you go to work tomorrow. You should change into them to look more ladylike if the date isn’t canceled. Stop dressing up like a bodyguard every day. Anyone would be afraid that you’d swing a punch at them.”“Look at the weather, Mom. It’s impossible to wear a dress. Do you want me to catch a cold?”Quinn glanced at Julian’s glass. She wanted to steal a few sips. “Who said anything about a summer dress? You can wear one that’s suitable for winter.”“I don’t have dresses in my closet, Mom. I’ve never worn a dress since I became an adult.”Quinn did not like wearing dresses. It would get in the way during her practice. “I can’t wa

Will believed that the men the matchmaker introduced to Quinn were unattractive. Dave did not object to the match, while Zoey reminded her son to be considerate of Julian and not hurt their guest. Everyone in the Crawford family was trained except Zoey. Due to their competitive nature, they liked to have matches with people skilled in martial arts. Julian contemplated whether to go all out or hold back later. However, upon remembering that Quinn admired strength, he decided to put his all into the match and defeat Will. That way, he could gain Quinn’s admiration. He hoped that his future brother-in-law would not hold a grudge against him for it. After the meal, Julian wanted to help clear the dishes but was stopped by Zoey. She said, “You can go and talk to Dave. Quinn and I will clean up.”Julian smiled and said, “It’s okay, Mrs. Crawford. I’m the one who cleans up after every meal in my family. I’m used to it.”He needed to exhibit his good side to the Crawfords. As he

Ten minutes later, Julian and Quinn walked behind her brothers. They were heading to Power Fitness. Summervale was livelier when dark fell. Although it was not as bustling as Wiltspoon, the city lights illuminated the streets. Mark said, “You can go up against me first, Julian. My dad trained us three, so we have similar moves. If you can beat me, you’ll have a greater chance of challenging my brother. He started training several years before I did. He’s stronger and faster.“He has also been teaching more advanced students while I’m still overseeing kids. It’s because I’m still young and not as famous as Will.”In Summervale, Quinn’s brothers were well-known in the martial arts circle. Julian said, “If so, it’s unfair to Will. It’s okay. I’ll have a match with him right away. I can accept any outcome. I train to strengthen my body and defend myself, not for fame.”Quinn grinned. “Why do you need fame when you’re a businessman? You’re already popular in Wiltspoon’s business in

“Besides, no one in their right mind will try to offend Old Mrs. York. She’s the one with the most connections. You’ll know that no one in my social circle is simple once you get acquainted with Serenity and the rest.”Families of higher status usually knew each other well with some even allies. “Will you still be my friend if you’ll be in danger because of me, Quinn? Will you break off our friendship?”Will turned his head and said, “What do you take Quinn for? My sister has already thought of you as her best friend. She’s sincere and will go to any lengths to help her friends. She’ll never break off your friendship.“However, that’s only if you don’t do anything illegal that’ll endanger Quinn. Otherwise, not only will we cut all ties with you, we’ll also beat you up.”Then, he told Quinn, “Julian was teasing you. Why did you believe him? If his situation is as dangerous as it sounds, he won’t contact us anymore if he has a sliver of conscience. Since he dared to come to our hou

“Don’t take me for a fool. I know what’s love,” Quinn complained. Will looked at Julian, then Quinn, who clearly had no idea about love. He chose not to expose the tension between them. Hang on. He had just revealed that Julian was preparing his sister for something. Yet, Quinn did not seem to get the hint that Julian was worried for her. “You must hold back during the match later, Will. Don’t go all out,” Quinn reminded him as her way to change the subject.Will said, “We’re not having a death match. Don’t worry. I’ll go easy on him.”Julian thanked Will. Soon, they arrived at Power Fitness. A few coaches were still around, watching their students train at night. When they saw Quinn and the rest walking in, they stopped. “Everyone take a rest and clear some space for me. I’m going up against Mr. Bucham here and have you all witness a match between professionals,” Will spoke with a smile, and everyone complied. A coach eyed Julian and asked, “Which gym is he from, Wil

“If Julian loses, that pool of money would be for all the bettors' supper. If he wins, all of your money will be mine.”Quinn did not want Julian to be embarrassed as everyone here would surely place their bets on Will. No one knew how skilled Julian was. However, based on his refined appearance and how Will addressed him as Mr. Bucham, some of them guessed that Julian was probably a CEO.For someone like that to be trained in martial arts, they would at most learn the foundation. How could he possibly defeat the future owner of the gym?The coaches took their cash and bet on Will’s victory. While the students were not little kids, they were still teenagers and did not have much money. However, they still joined in on the bet in small amounts.“I’ll follow Quinn and bet on Mr. Bucham.”One of the students gave Quinn his money after some thought. He said, “I’ll follow your lead, Quinn. We’ll be rich if Mr. Bucham wins.”Since everyone placed their bets on Will, the money he co

Austin replied, “Both Mr. Louis and Mr. Phillip woke up very early, especially Mr. Phillip. He gets up earlier than Mr. Louis every morning. It’s really hard on him, getting up so early in such cold weather.”Sometimes, he himself felt like staying in bed a little longer, reluctant to leave the warm comfort of his blankets.Even after the New Year, Satbury remained quite cold. In contrast, over in Wiltspoon, the temperatures had begun to reach a high of over seventy degrees Fahrenheit in the daytime, with nighttime lows around fifty degrees.The two provinces and cities were simply incomparable. The temperatures in Wiltspoon were just so very comfortable for Satbury locals.Isabella smiled and said, “Phillip is just afraid he’ll get here too late and that you’ll assume he’s not coming over for breakfast, then not prepare any for him. He's such a little foodie.”The house was never short of snacks for the little ones. In fact, any goodies were always reserved for them first.Yet,

Even when she attended banquets, she would show up in formal clothing. Isabella did not remember the last time she wore a dress. Perhaps it was when she was in third grade. In fact, she liked wearing pretty princessy dresses when she was young. Her mother had told her that.As Isabella was the first child and extremely adorable, Delphine had dolled her up like a princess. Her pretty dresses filled the closet. Her parents, aunts, uncles, and relatives would always gift her many beautiful dresses. As she grew up, perhaps when she was in fourth grade, she stopped wearing dresses. Regardless of who gave her new pieces, she would refuse to wear them and give them to her cousins instead. After everyone realized she disliked dresses, they gradually stopped giving her them. Delphine had asked Isabella why she disliked wearing dresses. Isabella reasoned that she could not walk quickly enough while wearing one. She valued speed and efficiency. Delphine said she had alway

While the private chefs Ms. Isabella had hired in the past were respectful, they were leaning toward flattery instead of sincere dedication, like how Austin was toward Ms. Isabella.Dominic was experienced. He could sense that Ms. Isabella treated Austin differently. She was also a special existence to Austin. It was normal for young people to be attracted to each other. Initially, Dominic wanted to advise Austin not to even think about dating Ms. Isabella. However, upon discovering that Austin was a young master of a wealthy family, he decided not to interfere. Dominic was glad that he did nothing.Austin returned to the house. Instead of heading straight to the kitchen, he went upstairs. He stopped outside of Isabella’s room and knocked on the door lightly. No response came from within the room. Perhaps Austin was too soft when he knocked. He knocked on the door again with more force and asked, “Are you up yet, Ms. Isabella? It’s time to have breakfast.”Isabella w

Austin was extremely patient with the boys. Although they occasionally caused trouble, most of them were minor issues. They would never do something they were not allowed to do.After breakfast, Austin brought them their bags. With a boy in each hand, he left the house. It was to prevent the boys from saying he was playing favorites. Dominic was used to that scene. Initially, Austin was simply Ms. Isabella’s private chef. However, he gradually took on more responsibilities.He would take the two young masters to school. If he had time in the evening, he would also fetch them from school. Austin also made sure Louis and Phillip did their homework, supervised their hobby classes, and played with them. Sometimes, he would even teach them martial arts and train with them. Dominic felt Austin was an all-rounder. It seemed like there was nothing Austin could not do. No wonder Ms. Isabella thought highly of Austin. However, Austin was a young master of a wealthy family. He w

Louis and Phillip were downstairs having the breakfast Austin had prepared for them. The food was different every morning, and everything was delicious.Having gotten used to Austin’s cooking, Louis and Phillip could no longer stand the food provided in the school. They thought the food there was terrible. Louis was enrolled in an elementary school not far from home. As he was a first grader, he did not need to stay in the dormitories and could have his lunch and dinner at home. Phillip, who was a year younger than him, was still in preschool. He would have breakfast and dinner at home. Actually, the preschool did provide breakfast, but Phillip refused to eat in school and insisted on having breakfast at home. In order to eat the breakfast Austin made, he would get up early in the morning without the adults waking him. After putting on his clothes and washing up, he would head to Louis’s place with his bag. “Austin.”Louis suddenly asked, “Did my sister come back last n

Isabella had always thought Tati was teasing her. Therefore, she did not take her words seriously. She thought it was completely normal for Austin to treat her well as she was his boss. From Austin’s perspective, she was his source of income. Now that Isabella pondered about it deeper, she realized perhaps Austin did come to Satbury for her. It was not just to be her chef. He always said Grandma May only gave the York lads a year to pursue their fiancées. However, Austin had never left since he started working for Isabella. Even if he did, it was to accompany her on business trips. He was busy feeding and taking care of her every day and had never gone to pursue his so-called fiancée. He did not even try to gather information on her. Was he not anxious?A year would go by pretty quickly. Although it felt like it had not been long since Austin started working for Isabella, three months had passed. Time really flew. Three months had gone by in the blink of an eye. Neve

When Austin reached the door, he stopped and turned to say, “Ms. Isabella, I only care about my future wife. Other young women are simply strangers to me.“I’m polite to other women when I need to be. If they’re unimportant, I’ll ignore them. Even if that woman is my boss, I won’t cross any lines. If I do, there must be a reason behind it.“Get some rest, Ms. Isabella. You might have a headache when you wake up tomorrow. I’ll prepare a warm honey drink for you in the morning.”After speaking, Austin left. Isabella turned to look at where he last stood. What did his words mean?He said he only cared about his future wife.Aside from this lady, he would not step out of line with any other young woman, even if she were his boss. What did he mean by crossing lines?Was it showing concern? Did he mean that if his boss was a young woman but not his fiancée, he would simply do what was required of him without any personal feelings involved? Was that what he meant?If so, was

Isabella was cold sometimes, but that was not her true personality. She was a reasonable person. Austin was not worried that he would be mistreated as a live-in son-in-law. “Ms. Isabella.”Isabella looked toward him and waited for him to speak. He asked, “This may be abrupt, but may I ask what your ideal type is?”Isabella was stunned. Why did the question come to her? What was the type of man she liked?‘Someone like Austin,’ she thought. After a moment of silence, she said, “I like men who are capable, responsible, and have correct values. Even if his family isn’t as financially well-off as mine, I don’t mind so long as he’s honest, competent, and sincere about his feelings for me.“Of course, it’ll be great if we have the same social status. That way, we’ll have similar perspectives and more common topics. If we get married, we’ll be joining forces instead of it being a one-way financial aid.”“Although you can accept someone who isn’t from a similar family backgrou

After a moment of silence, Isabella said, “It’s okay. I know I was forcing it.”There was no point in asking Austin if he did not want to reveal anything. If he wanted to tell her, he would do so without her asking. However, her curiosity spiked with his silence. She was eager to know who his fiancée was. He was already so protective of his fiancée even though he had not met her before. It made Isabella jealous. It was her first time feeling that kind of emotion throughout her life. Although it was not a strong feeling, she still felt it. “You weren’t forcing me to tell you. You were simply curious. Most people have a curious side. It’s only natural for you to be inquisitive as well.”Austin said gently, “It’s not just you. Those who knew that my nana had chosen fiancées for my brothers and me were also curious about who the ladies were.“To be honest, we didn’t even know Nana had been choosing fiancées for us since a few years ago until she handed their pictures to us
